Has always looked promising and finished last season on the upgrade with 3m1f soft-ground handicap chase wins at Catterick; 5lb rise for the latest (by 2.5l) is perfectly fair for one with the potential to rate higher; the preferred choice of Gavin Sheehan ahead of stablemate Super Survivor.

Impressed in a novice handicap chase at Chepstow last Christmas; disappointing favourite in another at Uttoxeter (again about 3m on soft) when hard at it from some way out; looks a thorough stayer and this is reportedly a prep race for the Welsh National.

Impressed in a novice handicap chase at Chepstow over Christmas; disappointing favourite in another at Uttoxeter (again about 3m on soft) three weeks ago, although that 17l third was better than seemed likely given he was sluggish even before halfway; plausible as an out-and-out stayer and should have more to offer but he needs more zip than he showed last time. |

Beat just the two opponents on chase/handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m6f, good) last November and that's not proved a springboard to better things; market weakness suggested her comeback run was needed but she's got a bit to prove now.

Has become a hard horse to predict and he checked out disappointingly when one of the favourites for his return at Carlisle (3m, soft); could be sharper for that and it's easy to make a case off this mark on his best form.

His form was up and down last season but he's back down to the same mark as for his C&D win (soft) last November, and he ran some good races subsequently (including on good to soft); returns from a break and could be thereabouts for trainer who has won two of the last four runnings. |

Drew clear to win by 6l off today's mark at Carlisle (3m, soft) in November but has rather mixed record since, and was soundly beaten in series final at Haydock four weeks ago; goes without usual cheekpieces today. |

Couldn't land any sort of blow in his two handicap hurdles last winter but there were plenty of positives to take from his novice runs and this point runner-up is an interesting contender on chase debut, especially with a decent record fresh; had wind op.
